Press Conference By Tadahiro Matsushita, Japan's Minister For Financial Services - Calculation Method Of TIBOR Following LIBOR Manipulation Scandal
[Questions & Answers]
- Q.
-
I have two questions.
First, the Japanese Bankers Association (JBA) started considering revisions to the calculation method of TIBOR (Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate) following the scandal over the manipulation of LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate).
Regarding TIBOR, a foreign securities company's use of an illegal practice was exposed last year. What measures does the Financial Services Agency (FSA) intend to take to prevent illegal acts related to TIBOR and what are your thoughts on the unfolding LIBOR scandal?
- A.
-
As for the LIBOR scandal, we regard it as a very serious problem. We are keeping close watch on it.
As for your question concerning revisions to TIBOR, the JBA is responsible for determining the standard for managing TIBOR, so the FSA is not in a position to make comments.
I understand that in response to inquiries from media organizations, the JBA has replied that nothing has been decided with regard to revisions to TIBOR. I believe that it is important that the JBA, which is responsible for publishing TIBOR, take appropriate and timely actions regarding the management of TIBOR.
I think that the management of TIBOR and the illegal manipulation of interest rates are different matters.
The FSA has already been checking individual financial institutions' internal control systems through inspection and supervision. If a problem is recognized with regard to a financial institution's internal control system, we will take appropriate actions as needed.
